Hello Stemian!!
One of the joy of being a grandmother, apart from the obvious fact that the role is part-time and often optional is not stressful.
Parenthood like marriage is hard work, a lifetime's commitment that brings pain as well as joy.Having a grandchild is like being in love.
"I know our time together is brief, you will grow up I will die."The very brevity of relationship adds to its passion.I see the childs beauty which hits me afresh each time and have a privilege of sharing time in his innocence
Nobody looks forward to old age, but the gift of grandchildren brings unexpected glow. For me being a grandmother, I want them to have many happy memories of their time with me as possible.
